Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection is a third-person 3D Action Dungeon Crawler where you can revive your defeated enemies to make them fight alongside you.

Sword Of The Necromancer: Resurrection is a full 3D remake of the original monster-summoning dungeon crawler game, which featured roguelite elements top-down pixelart graphics.

Turn your foes into allies using the forbidden powers of the Sword of the Necromancer and help the rogue Tama reach the dungeon's depths to obtain the power to bring her beloved priestess Koko back from the dead. Assemble a small army of monsters, equip yourself with weapons and relics, and level up to take on the guardians that stand between you and your goal.

Resurrection will be based on Revenant's improved mechanics and systems, including the possibility of customizing the summoned monster's AI, and will retell Tama and Koko's tragic love story. Delve deep into the dungeon and Tama's memories and learn about how they met and what they went through, obtain the power of the Necromancer and bring Koko back from the dead!

Sword Of The Necromancer: Resurrection will be given to all the backers of Revenant that get at least the digital gameif the campaign reaches its stretch goal of €201K. Remember that backers can also get a free copy of the original 2D game for Steam, and exclusive campaign rewards like a full-fledged Trading Card Game that also grants items and monsters to summon in the video game. That's three videogames and a card game for supporting one project!

Beating Sword Of The Necromancer: Resurrection will also unlock rewards in Revenant, like the possibility of summoning the bosses of the remake as special summons (the titular Revenants). 

The new game is being developed taking all the feedback from the original into account to create a refined and enjoyable Sword of the Necromancer experience, while keeping its trademark original mechanic and expanding upon it. Grimorio of Games is working to make an engaging game to both new and returning players.

Sword of the Necromancer: Revenant has already raised more than 100,000€ on kickstarter, after reaching its initial goal of 15,000€ in just under two hours. During this time, the campaign has achieved 6 of its stretch goals: including additional voice lines (by voice actors that have appeared in anime and games like Jojo's Bizarre AdventureThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WildGenshin Impact or the recent Fire Emblem Engage), more music from Dale North (DreamscaperWizard of Legendand Emi Evans (Nier AutomataDark Souls 2), new game modes and the option to make your custom character.

The kickstarter campaign is looking for further support to reach more stretch goals and make the game even bigger!

Sword of the Necromancer: Revenant's Physical and Collector's Edition will be possible thanks to Grimorio's partners Tesura Games, which also distributed the first Sword of the Necromancer in retail stores across Europe.
